This is awesome, number #9 now???!!!I thought i was seeing a correction back down to 200 sats, but perhaps trading is happening on the other side as everyone wakes up now?IDK, but there is no reason why we should not be in the top 10, if some coin based on a dog meme can sit at #7, there is no reason we cant do better either.

Now how about we don't lose our shit ? Let's just wait and see how long it holds and where it ends up settling

I am happy for you guys (as one of the nicer communities here) that you are seeing the price jump However buying now seems risky since the price has moved principally as a result of an exchange listing (albeit a good one)

Ive looked at NEM and tried understanding the product, which is pretty slick.But I was a little concerned about the following:

a) Technology: Ethereum is the elephant in every alt room atm. Can NEM (or any other) compete with it?b) Japan: Yes, the news outta Japan is promising for NEM, although since it is in Japan it is hard for me to gauge exactly how promising. It would be a major boon for NEM if it could get companies in Europe and the US to look at the tech.

re:a) - I'd say it depends on what your use case is. NEM has arguably a much, much lower entry barrier because the API is very simple and extremely well documented. If you try to get into eth it can be a little more daunting especially for more inexperienced people. Furthermore NEMs mosaics, namespace and multi-sig are sure all possible with Ethereum but again it's just WAY easier to do it with NEM. So if your usecase is anything except smart contracts using Eth over NEM would be downright silly.

re:b) - Yeah, I hear ya. I have no idea how great exactly we're doing ther either because very little information is available in english. NEM had the success it had in Japan because we had people in Japan pushing it. Noone should expect this to happen in Europe or anywhere else without someone actively getting out there are marketing NEM. Anyone is welcome to do this and if you wanna be more active join our slack/telegram.
